Arsenal put an end to their four-game streak without a win in impressive fashion, emerging victorious over Aston Villa in a thrilling match with six goals. With one draw and two losses, including a defeat against Manchester City, the Gunners were lacking in confidence and their hopes of winning the Premier League title were dwindling....CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
However, Mikel Arteta’s team prevented that from happening by scoring two late goals at Villa Park, thus restoring their lead in the title race.
During the first half of the game, Bukayo Saka’s powerful shot equalized Ollie Watkins’ early goal, only for Philippe Coutinho to put Villa back in the lead with a sweeping finish.
In the second half, Arsenal had several opportunities to score, and it was surprising when Oleksandr Zinchenko found the back of the net from the edge of the box to level the score once more.
Martin Odegaard missed a golden opportunity, leading most Arsenal fans to believe that luck was not on their side. However, Jorginho had other plans.
After coming on as a substitute in the second half, Gabriel Martinelli sealed Arsenal’s victory by expertly dribbling the ball into an empty net. This occurred during Aston Villa’s last-ditch attempts to score an equalizer, with goalkeeper Martinez up for a corner.
With several other teams near Arsenal losing points over the weekend, the Gunners are confident in their ability to secure maximum points in their upcoming games.
Leicester vs Arsenal
Arsenal faces another challenging away game against Leicester, who are in high spirits after recent victories, including a 4-1 win against Arsenal’s local rivals Tottenham at King Power Stadium.
To secure a positive result against the Foxes, Mikel Arteta’s team must deliver a well-rounded performance, with a strong offense and defense, especially with the return of James Maddison from injury and new signing Tete in top form.
Arsenal vs Everton
One of the most significant upcoming tests for Arsenal is the match against Everton at Emirates Stadium on March 1st. This game is especially crucial because the Gunners’ poor form started with a defeat to Everton in Sean Dyche’s first game for the club. As a result, Arsenal will be eager to seek revenge against the Toffees.
Bournemouth vs Arsenal
Although Bournemouth may seem like the most manageable opponent in Arsenal’s upcoming series of matches, it would be unwise to underestimate them. After a draw with Newcastle, the Cherries went on to defeat Wolves at Molineux, a challenging accomplishment under Julen Lopetegui.
Arsenal vs Fulham
Fulham away in the Premier League. In a previous encounter earlier in the season, the Gunners were almost defeated by the Cottagers but managed to secure a victory with two late goals. Since then, Fulham has maintained an impressive form and will be optimistic about their chances against Arsenal on their home turf.
Crystal Palace vs Arsenal
Next month, Patrick Vieira will be reuniting with Arsenal once again, as he leads Crystal Palace to Emirates Stadium. The best way to describe the Eagles would be “inconsistent.”
In some games, their attacking prowess and defensive solidity can be unstoppable and impressive, but in other fixtures, they might appear devoid of ideas and weak at the back. Despite their unpredictability, Arsenal should not underestimate Crystal Palace as they possess enough talent to potentially cause a significant upset.
